Nico Williams' health problems before the 2026 World Cup: Spain in trouble

The Spanish national team advanced to the next phase of the 2026 World Cup, but this success was overshadowed by serious health problems of key players. After Yéremy Pino's serious collarbone injury was confirmed, disturbing information about Nico Williams appeared.  During the last match against Uruguay, the Athletic Club winger left the Guadalajara stadium with a visible limp in his right leg and a worried look on his face. Coach Luis de la Fuente tried to be cautious during the press conference: "We have to wait, he feels some discomfort. It could be muscle tension or fatigue. We'll see." Despite this, the mood in the Spanish team is rather pessimistic. Nico Williams arrived at the tournament with problems, showing a lack of his typical dynamics. If the worst suspicions are confirmed, the player will join Yérema Pino, who was excluded from the rest of the tournament due to a serious collarbone injury. This double blow forces the coach to reshuffle the offensive formation, which is quite a challenge with a weakened squad. --- ## Related Articles 1.
